Dynamic Spectrum Sharing for Wireless Local Area Networks

1. A method comprising: receiving, by a hardware processor, a wireless signal sent from a device; first querying a television white space database to identify a television white space channel; querying, by the hardware processor, an electronic database after the querying of the television white space database to identify an indoor position of the device, the electronic database electronically associating signal strengths of wireless signals to indoor positions including a signal strength of the wireless signal sent from the device; determining, by the hardware processor, that overlapping wireless local area networks serve the device based on the indoor position, the overlapping wireless local area networks broadcast by multiple access points; selecting, by the hardware processor, a channel that corresponds to a single local area network of the overlapping local area networks, the single local area network broadcast by a single access point of the multiple access points; and sending, by the hardware processor, a message to the device, the message specifying the channel that corresponds to the single local area network broadcast by the single access point, the message directing the device to communicate using the television white space channel.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising routing the message via the channel that corresponds to the single local area network.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising routing the message via the single local area network.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising routing the message via the single access point.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising selecting a frequency band associated with the television white space channel.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising switching from the television white space channel to the channel that corresponds to the single local area network.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising communicating with the device via the channel that corresponds to the single local area network.

8. An information handling system, comprising: a hardware processor; and a memory device, the memory device storing instructions, the instructions when executed causing the hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising: receiving a wireless signal sent from a device; first querying a television white space database to identify a television white space channel; querying an electronic database after the first querying of the television white space database to identify an indoor position of the device, the electronic database electronically associating signal strengths of wireless signals to indoor positions including a signal strength of the wireless signal sent from the device; determining that overlapping wireless local area networks serve the device based on the indoor position, the overlapping wireless local area networks broadcast by multiple access points; selecting a Wi-Fi channel that corresponds to a single local area network of the overlapping wireless local area networks, the single local area network broadcast by a single access point of the multiple access points; and sending a message to the device via the Wi-Fi channel that corresponds to the single local area network broadcast by the single access point, the message directing the device to communicate using the television white space channel.

9. The information handling system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise identifying multiple Wi-Fi channels that correspond to the overlapping wireless local area networks.

10. The information handling system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise routing the message via the single access point.

11. The information handling system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise switching from the television white space channel to the Wi-Fi channel.

12. The information handling system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise communicating with the device via the Wi-Fi channel that corresponds to the single coverage area.
